My Light In The Dark

Chapter Four - How much did you see?

I start dinner I start making vegtable stew and steaming the rice, while the stew simmers I grab a fresh change of clothe from the chest in my room and go to the bathroom * knock knock knock* "Mr Agatsuma I have a fresh change of clothes for you" sliding the door open just enough the get the clothes through I neatly place them on the closed clothing basket and close the door.

"Thank you Miss Takashima, please just call me Alex tho" he says from the other side of the door, with a small smile I say "its okay um ... Alex, if you need anything else just ask okay" saying this I leave to finish making dinner, having heard the shower turn on some time ago, I know hear it turn off, just as I start serving up dinner and placing it on the table with the cutlery, I put two glasses of water on the table and look at the set up of the table and tilt my head to the side "something's missing" I mutter to myself.

Clicking my fingers figuring out what's missing I say quietly "Alex needs something to sit on", with that I dash off to get another cushion. Just as I get back Alex comes out from the hall way buttoning up all but the top three buttons of the shirt I gave him, I put the cushion on the floor and gesture for him to sit, he does and looks hungrily at the meal.

Putting my hands together I say " Thank you for the meal" Alex watches me for a second then does the same then we enjoy out nice warm dinner.
